Sarah Sanders accused of sharing 'doctored' video to justify CNN ban

It isn't his job to debate the POTUS. It isn't the moral responsiblity of the POTUS to debate reporters during a press briefing. The POTUS doesn't even have to have a White House press corp. I know that you think that just because Acosta ways the stuff that you want him to that he isn't bound by any type of decency or manners but the fact is he is. He acted like an asshat. He has a history of being an asshat. Too bad. Cry on someone else's shoulder.

 

Why is it that I keep get the feeling that conservative apologists sound a lot like liars trying to lie themselves out of a lie.

I've been playing with GIFs for about 30 years. I'm not buying your explanation.

 

Your argument is that Trump made Acosta act like an ass? Really? The wife beater argument doesn't work.

 

... and that story is BS. We all saw it straight. I saw the "fraudulent video" version and then read expert audio/visual responses online that said.... "meh"... nothing there provable as it could happen in conversion, rendering, and internet transmission. In short, you got nothing but an ******* named Acosta that deserved what he got.

 

He should have been banned simply for being a rude ass. Not handing over the mic was the last straw.

 

Does not matter what the video shows or whether it was modified, Acosta should be banned. He acted like an ass while pushing a loaded question and pushing a political agenda.

Acosta touched a woman without her permission. According to "progressives", that's sexual assault. Another reason to fire Acosta.

 

Funny how those missing frames are right at the point of contact between Acosta and the aide.

Look, you can drink whatever flavor Kool-Aid you want. Just don't expect me, or anyone else to go along with it.

 

No, the aide touched Acosta without permission. Acosta didn't approach her, she approached, and made contact, with him.

 

When Obama was elected I was dissappointed but he was my president even if I didn't vote for him. I respect the office even if not the officer.

 

That's really silly.

As usual, Trump is responding to bad behavior and he is blunt and comes back at them hard.

So what? Their behavior came first and was unacceptable and childish.

So he admonishes them like misbehaving children.

Trump did nothing wrong. He is facing hostile and aggressive attacks that no other president has had to endure.

I think he's done well and been patient. I would have kicked out the ones acting like jackasses much sooner.

 

Oh baloney.

Her job was to take the microphone and he pushed her away.

He was totally out of line........so bye bye to him.

Should have been kicked out much sooner.

 

I don't know that it was intentionally doctored, do you?

 

I didn't say that. Read the thread and try to rely less on your fevered imagination.

Obviously, for arguing and refusing to sit down as requested he needs to be kicked out.

Prosecution for assault will have to be decided by the White House.

 

Oh ok ya it’s definitely not assault agreed

 

Oh, it's definitely assault, but they will probably not charge him.

Banning him is far more serious punishment than anything he'd get in the legal system.

 

It boils down to this. Acosta was a dick and he's out unless and until the WH press office let's him back. If you don't like it TUFF!

 

"So let's take a step back. What happened in that room was not the ultimate fight for press freedom. This wasn't someone risking life and limb against a regime where freedom of speech is forbidden. This was a bloke sitting in a room full of colleagues who were all trying to ask questions too.

This was a man who'd had his turn and had been told he couldn't hog the whole time." Emily Maitlis, BBC

This was an egomaniac media jerk.

 

then you know when you format to a GIF it removes frames to lower it band width correct
a televised recording runs about 30 FPS and a GIF runs about 10 FPS so when you format from a TV recording to a GIF frames are dropped
and if you say no you don't have a clue what the hell you are talking about and you are full of crap

 

Accusers of Sarah Sanders have just been accused by other accusers of falsely accusing Sarah Sanders.

CNN reports.
Also, new video shows that Jim Acosta was NOT THERE at the press meeting and was actually on a plane flying to Cuba and was in the act of groping a flight attendant.

 

Really?Amazingly enough it always works for liberals.

 

Why are still defending a fraudulently altered video?

 

Theres no winning in responding much to Trump supporters these days, but I do appreciate the effort. They live in a Fantasy land where what we see live with our own eyes isnt actually what is happening

 

How can we respect the office of the president when the president himself doesnt respect that office

 

Right they won’t charge with assault therefore not assault. I think Acosta did enough to be banned but saying assault is a little much imo

 

because it wasn't fraudulently altered it was reformatted to a GIF so to be able to post it on sites like twitter
